7 Bible Verses about Parental Discipline

Most Relevant Verses

In the lips of him that hath understanding a man shall find wisdom; but the rod belongeth to the back of the foolish.

Withhold not correction from the child; for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die thereof. Thou smitest him with the rod; but thou deliverest his soul from hell.

If ye be not under correction - whereof all are partakers - then are ye bastards and not sons. Moreover, seeing we had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: should we not much rather be in subjection unto the father of spiritual gifts that we might live? And they verily for a few days nurtured us after their own pleasure; but he learneth us unto that which is profitable, that we might receive of his holiness.

And ye have forgotten the consolation which speaketh unto you, as unto children, "My son despise not the chastening of the Lord, neither faint when thou art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loveth, him he chasteneth: yea, and he scourgeth every son that he receiveth." If ye shall endure chastening, God offereth himself unto you, as unto sons. What son is that whom the father chasteneth not?
